QR Code for Immigration Clearance at Land Checkpoints

QR code clearance offers a faster and more convenient way to clear immigration at Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints. Whether you are travelling alone or with others, you can generate an individual or group QR code for a smoother clearance process. 

You must still bring along your passport for travel when using QR code clearance.

To generate a QR code, you need:

• A mobile phone with MyICA mobile app downloaded
• Your passport or Singpass (for Singapore Citizens (SCs), Permanent Residents (PRs), Long-Term Pass holders)

SCs, PRs, Long-Term Pass holders with a Foreign Identification Number (FIN) and foreign visitors can use a QR code for immigration clearance when arriving in or departing from Singapore via land checkpoints by car, motorcycle, lorry, or bus.

You cannot use a QR code if you are:

• Entering Singapore as a first-time foreign visitor
• Re-entering Singapore using a different passport from your last visit

If you are using a passport that has not been used for entry into Singapore before, you must present your passport for immigration clearance. You will be able to use a QR code for immigration clearance on your subsequent trips.

If you are using the automated immigration lanes, you must ensure your biometric identifiers have been enrolled with ICA or MOM. You can refer to Automated Lanes at the Passenger Halls for more information on biometrics clearance.

Before Reaching the Checkpoint

Create a profile and generate an individual or group QR code using MyICA mobile app. You must present a valid passport to proceed through the checkpoint.

At the Checkpoint 

Instead of presenting your passport, self-scan your generated QR code at the immigration lanes.
